12.4.5. Inter-ping
For selectable fixed rate pinging to synchronise ping rate with vessel speed - setting
to a minimum will make the sonar ping at the highest frequency allowable by the
system.
When a Gemini Profiler is online the main display will show an
Image
and
Target
rate.
Green text means that the actual ping rate has achieved the set inter-ping time and
red text means it has not (and is pinging as fast as it is able to). Typically in a survey
a regular ping interval is desired for the targets.
The target rate is not limited by network bandwidth since the target detection
(digitisation) is performed in the sonar head. Network bandwidth only limits the
image transfer rate. The image transfer rate will be reduced if there is insufficient
bandwidth available to send every image to the software, however, every image is
still acquired internally by the sonar and digitised.
12.4.6. Reset to Defaults
The Reset to Defaults button, when pressed, returns the software settings to their
default values.
